so-so
This is on the pick/so-so border for me. It was unique and well-done, but not my thing. The owner of a neighbourhood bar in the Paris suburbs has been murdered. Through the monologues the suspects give to the police, & the voice of the corpse himself, we hear of their lives and that day.
Towards the end, I started to feel for some of the unlikeliest characters - I'd look out for future books by Guène - think she might have more up her sleeve!. ?
